Then, choose an assembly area as close as possible to this final location and large enough to layout and pre-assemble all the parts for this Gazebo. It is highly recommended that you cover the work surface with a tarp or other fabric to prevent scratches to the finish during assembly. You will need these additional tools: a ladder and an adjustable wrench. You may also need these additiontal tools (optional): work gloves, waterproofing spray.
General Notes: 1. You will need the help of another person to assemble this product. Please ask a friend or neighbor for assistance! 2. Once a unit has been pre-assembled in each step, please set it aside until further instructions. 3. For all customers, we highly recommend that you remove your canopy top in cases of severe inclement weather such as thunderstorms. Please exercise good judgement. 4. Do not completely tighten any bolts or nuts until the last step prior to attaching the canvas top as you may need to make adjustments in the position of parts. PC-10053

Step 9 Tighten all Nuts and Bolts You may tighten all bolts and nuts in the gazebo frame at this time. Tighten just enough so that the parts are no longer loose. Caution! Do not overtighten as this may bend or damage the steel frame. Plastic end caps are also provided to protect the nuts at each connection. You may attach those at this time.
Step 10 Attach Canvas Top and/or Bug Screen Carefully pull the canvas top over the gazebo roof frame and slide the vent bars into each respective vent opening in the canvas. The fit will be very snug. You may need to reposition the gazebo legs slightly in order to pull the canvas top into position. Use the velcro straps to secure the canvas top to the gazebo frame. If you purchased a bug screen, you may attach it now using the velcro straps provided.
Step 11
Lawn Stakes
Parts you will need: 16 Lawn Stakes (Part F)
You may use Part F to help secure the gazebo to firm, compacted, earth. Drive the stakes all the way into the ground at opposing angles (see fig. 9) through predrilled holes in each corner panel. NOTE: the spikes are not intended to permanently mount the gazebo to any surface nor are they meant for use in soft earth. If your gazebo is located on a wood or concrete patio, please visit your local hardware store for an appropriate solution. 10

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Q: Will the gazebo frame ever rust? A: The powder coated finish of the metal frame prevents rusting so long as the metal itself is not exposed. Exposure of the metal may occur due to accidental scratches or long-term wear and tear. Occasional touch ups to aected areas with weatherproof paint will ensure many years of continued enjoyment from your gazebo. Q: Can I use grills or barbecues inside the gazebo? A: No, we do not recommend this. While the canopy top is fabricated using a fire resistant material, our gazebos are not designed to accomodate an open flame. Please refrain from using your grill inside the gazebo. Q: Will the gazebo move or blow away in strong winds? A: Several features of our design were considered to allow the gazebo to remain very stable across a range of weather conditions. The four vents in the canopy top help to allow low to medium winds to pass through the covering. However, if you install the gazebo in an area where strong winds are persistent, it is advisable to take further steps to fasten the gazebo to the ground. If the gazebo is installed over a soft natural surface (grass or dirt), you may drive metal stakes (included) through the holes located at the bottom of the panels and into the ground. If the gazebo is installed over a hard surface (wooden decks or concrete patios) it will be necessary to separately purchase screws or bolts and nuts to aďŹƒx the frame to your installation surface. Please visit your local Mills Fleet Farm Store for more options. Q: I like being outdoors, but cannot stay for long because of mosquitoes. Are bug screens available for my gazebo? A: Yes! Bug screens for all gazebo models are available separately for purchase as an accessory.

Care Instructions: Canvas Top The polyester top (Canvas Top) can be machine washed using a small amount of detergent. Do not machine dry or use bleach for the Top. Top may also be spray-rinsed while attached to Gazebo and lightly scrubbed with a soft broom. DO NOT use any hard abrasives to scrub. The canvas top is not waterproof. However, a waterproofing spray (not included) may be used to prevent rain water infiltration. The canvas top MUST be removed and stored in a dry location in the event of snow fall. Accumulated snow WILL severely damage your gazebo if the canvas top is not removed.
Gazebo Frame Any rust on the frame as a result of scratches on the surface can be cleaned with soap and water and wiped down with a soft cloth. DO NOT use any hard abrasives to scrub. Touch-up paint is not available but the colors can be matched at your local Mills Fleet Farm store. All metal parts may be sprayed with a clear laquer finish to maintain the attractiveness of your gazebo over time and allow you to enjoy your gazebo for as long as possible.
IMPORTANT: Winter storage - If you live in an area that experiences snow in the winter, remove the canvas top and store it in a location that is dry and free of moisture.
